Thanks for all of the improvements you're making but do you happen to add settings where I can select which options of your script I want enabled?
I like the wl-bl icon but I think it's interfering with another script and some people have 2 blue hearts next to them now. I can always go on and call them superblues or something but a fix or disable option would be nice ^^

The settings menu is next on my TODO list. Hopefully I can publish it in a few minutes / hours, but I can tell you how to disable it manually until then if you want.

I've been working on some improvements over the past few days, but I was holding out because I wanted to push the next version with the Preview Posts feature, but it looks like that will have to stay for next week or next year. I'm pushing a smaller update today that will have a new feature though. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Interesting, looks like I didn't look well. Thanks, I might just be able to do something. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks. Yeah, I'm not sure that script would be useful to me.
Comment has been collapsed.
I see. I usually like to take my time with trains. Wouldn't it be better for you to bind it to some other key though, like right arrow?
Comment has been collapsed.
I tried, but it didn't detect it, so I picked one I didn't use often. I also made an option with ">" but that needs you to press shift.
this doesn't trigger with the -> $(document).keypress(function (e){...
Edit: changed it to $(document).keydown(function (e){...
Now it works with the "->", but I bound it to "PageDown" since I never use that.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, it only works with keydown. Glad you got it working. :)

It took more than a year, but someone FINALLY fixed that comment chain issue. Thank youuuuuuuu!
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm, seems to be a small issue with a part of the user page not being pushed to the background when adding notes (image below).
Also, do you think adding this feature would also be possible? :P
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a conflict with another userscript. Will be fixed in the next version, thanks.
I don't know if that's possible, I'll check it out. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks, I already found the problem though. :P I'll push the new version out tomorrow. I was also able to implement that feature you linked. :) You want it to remain in the Messages page after submitting the reply, right?
Comment has been collapsed.
Sweet! And yes, preferably. Its use would be mainly for when you have many notifications and want to quick reply.
Comment has been collapsed.
Alright, it's working, but I have to adjust some things. I'll post the new version tomorrow. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Haha finally got it to work! I wasn't able to get it to work with GM_xmlhttpRequest though, so I used AJAX and it worked perfectly. And "data-comment-id" isn't present in the Messages page, so I have to parse the source page to get it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, I read the documentation and tried to send a POST request with it, but it didn't work. Maybe my "data" was broken, but I tried multiple different ways. Is there any problem in leaving it in AJAX?
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh sorry, I meant jQuery.ajax(). :P Since I'm sending to the same domain, I can use it without any issues.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for explaining and for the suggestion! I'll check it out and see if I can implement it in the next version. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for the explanation. Would the following summary of pros and cons be accurate?
Pros: Local database means there are no real privacy concerns (as the data is not available online to anyone, not even to revilheart)
Cons: Data isn't accessible to other browsers or other computers; Potential dataloss if the database isn't backed up by the user and the machine is formatted.
Is there a way to use dropbox to host the database online? If so, an risk in multiple browsers accessing the same database at the same time? this could be the best of both worlds.
Comment has been collapsed.
With the new version they are stored in Greasemonkey's SQLite database, like Sighery explained in his last paragraph. :)

v0.3 Fixed some bugs, made some improvements and added Reply From Inbox feature.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just installed this and checked it. Neat. Absolutely like reply from inbox.
can you incorporate whitelist/blacklist indicator? I think there was a script, but it was no longer updated, I had to manually fix it. Well, it's working now, but with additional script like endless scrolling it only works for the first page.
If this request isn't suitable for your script, please disregard. Thank you.
Comment has been collapsed.
v0.4 Changed the location of the permanent notes from the browser's local storage to Greasemonkey's SQLite database. If you had already saved any notes in the previous versions, they will be automatically transferred to the new location.
Comment has been collapsed.
questions on this one. i know sighery stated "not cleaned when the user cleans its browser's cache" however, now this brings up another couple questions.. what is associating that sql db to me? would this new feature also be impervious to a full wipe and re-installation of an operating system, as well as would it be multiple-pc friendly now (at work pc's notes will now also be linked to home pc's notes)?
Comment has been collapsed.
okay, so "Greasemonkey's SQLite database" is a local-file of a sort also then i guess. when i think "sql" I instantly think online database, but clearly that's not the case here. it wasn't meant as a suggestion really, it was just me assuming it was online stored now and that was what was making it "not get removed upon a browsers cache wipe" which in turn would of already made it able to be cross-pc accessible.
honestly that's the only way i'd actually trust "notes" is if they were constantly clouded/databased/whatever online.. still using this script for other features, but i'd never trust a local-file if my life depended on it.
edit: oh and on the export/import, it does import the actual scripts and the load order, but none of the local storage files for any of the prior scripts i've used. not sure with this syle of localstorage though compared to others. (i'd assume same though)
Comment has been collapsed.
i knew they could be a local storage file too, but my mind just instantly goes online with todays technology. no logical reason for that though.
idk why a unlimited phone internet is needed in order to use a cloud though. i don't even touch the phones internet. ;) i don't see how someone would tear thru their internet plan simple saving a few bytes of data unless they plan on typing up full blown biographies as notes for people. but i understand why it would be a localfile.. i just learned long ago after many family photos went corrupt from hdd failure not to trust technology that isn't backing itself up elsewhere if it's something i care about.. so a simple .txt saved to dropbox or any other cloud i trust far more then a localfile on my drive (even ssd). --when i say trust, i mean i trust it to exist at a later date, not that i trust the security and privacy of it so much.
idk anything really about the coding, just enough to scrape by when told what to edit. but thats about it tbh. this whole question was really more just for curiosity on how "permanent" it was because a online stored db would be the most amount of "permanent" you can really get versus the localfile that imo isn't so permanent. to be perfectly honest i don't even know what notes i'd type up, so it be no means needs to be tailored to my needs.. but that does sound cool for anyone that would want that. for me if anything all i'd need to know is what the filename is and where and i could add it to cloud backup itself. would be easier then even customizing the script.
oh and yes i do have two domains and their free hosting service that comes with them. but we discovered it isn't nearly as good as it used to be in bandwidth.
Comment has been collapsed.
but on the phone part you're talking about for people that actually use a phone. i have a prepaid phone that i only have used 100mb's in 10months out of the 1.3gb's i had for the full year.
i'm dsl and afaik (was talk about it changing, but i don't think it has) still no bandwidth limit at all. and i go nowhere really at all. xD
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, the new version allows you to import / export your notes, so you can choose your Dropbox folder as destination and use that as backup. Of course it's a manual process through.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have a free hosting, so that's not suitable for something like this. I was going to use it for my Preview Posts feature, but it was often down, and the request limits could be an issue. Even the Username History feature could use a database that's not a Google Sheet. :P I guess maybe in the future if I can, but "permanent" is really just related to sticking to someone if they change their username, which is something other tagging scripts don't do afaik.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, that's what I thought. Just from some quick testing I managed to use 0.5% of my limit, so I decided to just rewrite Parsedown in Javascript. Plus Google Sheets is holding well for the Username History, so it's not that urgent. Google's limits are pretty good. I appreciate the thought tough. Me too, let's hope we get a job in 2017. xD

v0.5 Added Whitelist / Blacklist Highlighter feature.
Comment has been collapsed.
Does it only count how many people own it or actually shows the members? The reason I was going to do it is because someone was asking for it in a thread, to show the list of people, not just the number, like what that site "mabako" or something does for groups.
Comment has been collapsed.
v0.6 Fixed some bugs, made some improvements and added Settings Menu feature.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just submitted a reply via the notifications page, it said it was successful but the reply actually didn't register.
Does this script auto-update or I should update it manually?
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm I have an idea to prevent that, will test it later. The script should auto-update.
Comment has been collapsed.
I just pushed a new version, it should be fixed now.
Comment has been collapsed.
Again tried to send you a reply, didn't send it. Strange. Maybe it hasn't auto-updated on my side yet?
Comment has been collapsed.
Did it show "Reply sent!" though? Can you try manually updating?
Comment has been collapsed.
It did. I'll try updating manually, if you can send me a reply for tasting purpose that would be neat. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
You should be able to click in "Reply sent!" and go to the reply since v0.7.
Comment has been collapsed.
Perfect! By the way, when you were sending the replies before and they weren't coming through, were your messages marked as read?
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah 'cause prior to v0.8 the replies didn't go through if all the messages were marked as read. Looks like your problem was different then.
Comment has been collapsed.
Also, I'm having a new problem. Every single time I refresh/load up the forum page, it loads up, freezes for a second, and this message pops up (see attached image). I'm not sure how scripts work, but it says Chrome and I user Firefox, so yeah.
It happens right after the whitelist/blacklist notifications appear on usernames.
Comment has been collapsed.
Do you have a lot of people on your whitelist / blacklist? I experienced a few freezes while endlessly scrolling, but not just by opening the forum. But then again I only added a few people to my whitelist to test it. That might be the issue. I'll see if I can improve my code to prevent those freezes. You can disable the Whitelist / Blacklist Highlighter feature in the settings menu if you want.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just counted, I currently have 25 whitelists on page 1 of the forum (no endless scrolling).
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm I had way more than that on page 1 and didn't freeze. I'll have to do some testing.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm I didn't even know there was Tampermonkey for Firefox. :P But I think the issue was really my code, it was crappy made: every time you opened a page on SteamGifts it would scan your whitelist / blacklist, filter every single link in the page looking for the usernames, and then highlight them. Now it only scans your whitelist / blacklist every number of days or manually (you can configure this in the settings menu), and it no longer filters every single link in the page. So I think jbond won't be having this problem anymore, or at least I hope so. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
i only recently heard someone else mention using TM on firefox, prior to that i didn't either. i'd imagine it's pretty new and not as good as greasemonkey would be for it (yet at least). & nice on that update, i didn't realize it was scanning that much before, but glad you got that worked out. ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, this is old. And yes, I'm aware of Violentmonkey.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just pushed an update. Let me know if it's still freezing. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
No more crash, but freezes for 5 to 10 seconds every time I visit the forum page - needless to say, I'm going to disable that setting again for now. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Your current version is v1.3+? If so, I'm starting to think it might be conflicting with another one of your scripts, because I added more than 50 people from page 1 of the discussions to my whitelist and tested on Firefox, it works fine here. And apparently this hasn't affected other people who posted in this thread.
Comment has been collapsed.
Argh, sorry, it hadn't auto-updated so I re-installed it. Now it won't freeze, but it also won't display whitelist/blacklist highlighter at all, even when enabled. :/
Comment has been collapsed.
The first scan has to be manual, I forgot to add that to the settings page. Just click on the scan button and it should start showing.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah, I see. It works now, but unfortunately there is still a freeze/delay of around five seconds when I refresh my page. Doesn't matter much though, I don't really care for this setting so I can just disable it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah that's unfortunate. :/ Well if you do become interested in this feature in the future, I'd recommend disabling all other scripts you have running and see if it still freezes. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Here I am bugging you again, but... I just pushed an update that I think will not have that problem anymore, so could you maybe possibly test it? :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Whitelist parsing is only returning first and last page, better start whitelisting/blacklisting a bunch of peeps ( for science ⚛ )
Comment has been collapsed.
v0.7 Fixed a bug in the Settings Menu feature that had all features disabled upon first use. Fixed a bug in the Reply From Inbox feature that showed the success message when the reply had not been sent (the reply is now also linked in the message). Fixed a bug in the Whitelist / Blacklist Highlighter feature that only retrieved members from the first and last pages.
Comment has been collapsed.
v0.8 Fixed a bug in the Reply From Inbox feature that did not send a reply if all the messages had been marked as read.
Comment has been collapsed.
v0.9 Actually now fixed the bug in the Settings Menu feature that had all features disabled upon first use and added Better Archive Search feature.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks! xD
Yeah, you really should. :P I know, this userscript has been way more time consuming than I thought it would be. I've been busy busy busy.
Comment has been collapsed.
v1.0 You can now reply to multiple comments at the same time in the Reply From Inbox feature, and a status message has been added to alert failures.

Enhanced SteamGifts & SteamTrades (ESGST)
An extension / userscript that adds some cool features to SteamGifts and SteamTrades.
If you find any bugs or have any feature requests, please file an issue here.
Compatibility
Tested and confirmed as working:
Not tested but should be working:
Not supported:
Installation
There are two different ways to use ESGST: extension or userscript. You can choose which one you want to use, but the extension is a lot faster and has a better peformance than the userscript, so I recommend it, although there is no major difference between them, except for a few options that are only available in the extension because of limitations in the userscript.
Option 1 - Extension
It should be possible to install the extension in any Chromium-based browser from the Chrome store (such as Opera, Vivaldi, etc...), any Firefox-based browser from the Firefox store (such as Waterfox, etc...), and any browser that uses the Phoebus system from the Pale Moon store (such as Basilik, etc...).
You can also use the extension on Android through Firefox for Android, but some features might not work or not be optimized enough for mobile.
Option 2 - Userscript
To install the userscript, you must install Violentmonkey, Tampermonkey, Greasemonkey or some other userscript manager first. Then click here and you should be prompted to install it. I recommend Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey, because the userscript uses the GM_addValueChangeListener API to communicate changes in the storage between tabs, and that API is not available on Greasemonkey, so a polyfill is used for Greasemonkey, which is not very effective and can affect the performance.
You can also use the userscript on Android through Firefox with Violentmonkey or USI, but some features might not work or not be optimized enough for mobile.
Beta Versions
The latest beta version for both the extension and the userscript is always available in the latest pre-release in the releases page.
